Manchester City
Man City's only injury absentee is Jack Grealish, who is nursing a groin problem and may not be fit to represent England during the international break later this month.
However, the Citizens were boosted by the return of Josko Gvardiol to the matchday squad last weekend after six games out with an ankle injury, and the Croatian defender could be in a position to start at left-back, meaning that Nathan Ake may either drop out of the first XI or move over to centre-back.
Guardiola may be tempted to make a few changes to his starting lineup, considering their two-goal advantage over Copenhagen and also with one eye on Sunday's trip to Liverpool, so the likes of Manuel Akanji, Rico Lewis, Mateo Kovacic, Matheus Nunes and Julian Alvarez could be handed starts.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Dias, Ake, Gvardiol; Kovacic, Rodri; Foden, Alvarez, Doku; Haaland
Copenhagen
As for Copenhagen, Lukas Lerager is available to return from a one-match ban, but the midfielder is currently in the treatment room with an unspecified injury along with Theo Sander, Davit Khocholava (both knee) and Viktor Claesson (unspecified), the latter of whom was withdrawn in the first half of Friday's loss at Midtjylland.
All four players are set to miss the trip to the Etihad, while Emil Hojlund – the brother of Man United striker Rasmus Hojlund – is doubtful and will be assessed ahead of kickoff.
In the absence of Claesson, either Andreas Cornelius, Jordan Larsson or in-demand teenager Roony Bardghji could be tasked with leading the line, joining Elias Achouri and former Southampton winger Mohamed Elyounoussi in attack.
Copenhagen possible starting lineup:
Grabara; Jelert, Vavro, McKenna, Diks; Goncalves, Falk, Mattsson; Elyounoussi, Larsson, Achouri
Prediction: Manchester City 3-0 Copenhagen (Manchester City to win 6-1 on aggregate)
